I was warned by 2 other boaters to avoid POP Yachts to sell my boat. I gave them a shot as they were very communicative in the search process for a boat I wanted to buy. Their follow up is very good. I knew this would translate to a sale if I gave them my boat to sell. Sure enough they sold my boat quickly and for exactly the money I wanted. I would recommend them to anyone looking to buy/sell. They are at the top of their game.

1997 Wellcraft Scarab 302 Sport Fishing Boat in Oceanside, New York

Stock #143373

Is she a go-fast boat, or a go fishing boat? Perhaps a "go fishing and fast" boat would be the best way to describe this interesting mutation.

All the essentials for fishing, large cockpit and workspace, live well, fish boxes, ample storage, plenty of gunwale rod holders and rocket launchers on the sporty arch, mated to the essentials needed to check out as many hot spots as humanly possible in one day on big water...

450 horsepower, blistering speed, a hull that can handle it, almost 200 gallons of fuel and redundant propulsion that assures you get home.

If you are the type of fisherman who wants to get out, get the lines wet, fill the coffin box and get back to port in time for lunch, this is your machine.

On the other hand, if you like to spend the day racing around, soaking in the sun or just donning your evening wear and tearing up to your favorite wharf-side restaurant "Bond, James Bond" style... this is your ride.

She shows her age but is of quality build and like most in her class could polish up like a gemstone. If the cabin is to be used for anything other than storage and occasional private moments, like stripping the wetsuit off your always-buttoned dinner jacket, it will not take much to put things in order below.

Always stored out of the water and flushed after every use, and with low overall hours and regular, proper scheduled maintenance the one thing the owners assure is that she runs great and will keep doing so.

Perhaps knowing a bit about the present owners will give some clues as to who the likely next owner may be.

Unlike the usual situation, dad has owned many ocean-going, high-performance boats since he was a kid, but curiously his son, whose early years on the water were spent lashed to the seat so as not to get tossed when dad caught some air (yes, there is a photo to prove it)...likes to fish.

This arrangement worked for a while, but now there is a grandchild and its time to move over to something like a Tiara or an Amberjack because mom wants a real cabin, so granddad is going to need to rein it back a bit.

So, look at the photos carefully, check out the specs, and think about whether a boat like this might be the right type for you, and whether this particular specimen is the right one for you.

Trailer not included.
